How to apply for an Aadhaar card?

To apply for an Aadhaar card, you must visit an authorized Aadhaar Enrolment Centre or Aadhaar Seva Kendra, as the process requires capturing biometric data. While you can book an appointment online via the official UIDAI website, the enrolment itself happens in person. You need to fill out an enrolment form and submit original supporting documents for proof of identity, address, and date of birth. After your biometrics and photograph are taken, you will receive an acknowledgement slip. The Aadhaar card is free of cost and will be sent to your address after verification.
